Once the e-rupee voucher is issued, it can be used only once. The e-rupee will be sent to the beneficiary’s mobile. This will be received by the beneficiary in the form of QR code or SMS.
The cost of notes will be less
According to RBI, it costs Rs 15 to print Rs 100 notes. A note lasts for four years. After this RBI has to print another note.
